Doyle is right, the gap is normal. I have the very same rifle, screw that breechplug in all the way, (finger tight as already stated), cap it with a primer - no powder or bullet, take it outside shoulder it and pull the trigger...youll see the firing pin come forward to hit the primer...it'll make sense when you see it.
